Of course he was vaccinated or had agreed to get it. Atkins is not an idiot.

It means the journalists should stick to their day jobs. Much was made about his vaccination status cause they write what they’re told by the regime.

Lol what the **** are you talking about? Journalists should stick to their day jobs by…not asking people questions about the beats they cover? The media in the US made a big deal about it because he wasn’t vaccinated when the royals came here to play and he couldn’t come with them and then he answered the questions about it pretty stupidly. He couldn’t do the job he’s paid millions of dollars to do and said he would be able to do it if he got moved to a better team. How the hell isn’t that a story for people who write about the Royals? How would someone who isn’t vaccinated being traded to the Jays not be a story for people who write about the Blue Jays? Why would “the regime” want journalists who write about the Blue Jays to ask those questions about his vaccination status?

You really haven’t put any thought into this at all have you?

To everyone saying an outdoor stadium wouldn't ever work in Toronto, the Twins are proof why that's nonsense. Minneapolis is even colder than Toronto and they're managing just fine in their new outdoor ballpark.

I'm learning even discussing vaccination status around here is a minefield. No telling who's going to rupture a ventricle.

Anyways, Merrifield has nice hair.

What’s to discuss? He got vaccinated.

Kirk's approaching an OBP of .400. Time to make him the roundest leadoff hitter in MLB history.

I'd want no part of an outdoor ballpark in Toronto in April, May and October. The cold sucks, snow/rain sucks, and postponed games suck.

Looked like Biggio had enough time to get the lead runner at 2nd.

I don't mind the decisiveness.
